How much time does it take to prepare MATCH® Meat?

When thawed, cook MATCH® for about half the amount of time as it's animal equivalent. If frozen, it will take about 10% less time. Don't overcook MATCH® as the meat will dry out. And remember, MATCH® isn't actually raw, so you don't have to worry about consuming undercooked meat. All you're doing when cooking MATCH® is giving it flavor and heating it up!

MATCH® can be kept in the freezer for up to 18 months. Thawed MATCH® Meat can be kept in the refrigerator for 5-7 days in it's original packaging. MATCH® can be refrozen after thawing, and cooked from a frozen or thawed state. Thawing and refreezing multiple times will not compromise the safety of the food.
